Top First Ride Hotel Reviews

Margaritaville Resort Lake Tahoe

10/10 Excellent

"This place is prime location, food and drinks are great, and the service was outstanding. The room was beautiful and perfect size for party of 3. I would stay there again"

The Americana Village

8/10 Good

"Beautiful place with a lovely atmosphere! The only downside was the shower. The water pressure was very low, and it took a while for the water to get hot. Also, the shower curtain was too short, causing water to spill onto the bathroom floor while showering. Other than that, it was a very nice stay."
